We’ve seen some pretty impressive Guitar Hero robots / hacks / cheats but this one takes the cake. What makes this really cool is that this is an Electrical Engineering senior design project at Texas A&M.
 
Very impressive. Trying to time those solenoid actuators to strike at the right moment must have been a real pain in the neck to do.
 
I like that although I would have ditched the solenoids and the timing issues they cause. They could probably hit 100% w/o them. Pretty slick :)
 
I wonder if that ting can play through Muse - Knights of Cydonia on Expert. It would seem like the solenoid whatnots would go absolutely mad if it attempted that song.
 
I wish we did cool projects like this at my college. the coolest thing we did was make an mp3 player... and it sucked.

ROFL!

In other news, has anyone modded the fake guitar parts into a real guitar? I think the plastic one is too light, I really want to try modding one into a real Fender
 
First chess, now guitar hero. I wonder whats next...Global Thermal Nuclear war (or was that first)?
 
whats said when i can play the song better than that machine =(

I need a life
 
Show me the person or HW knocking down Zappa's Willie the Pimp & I'll be impressed.
 
Hah, I go to A&M. Doesn't surprise me some EE guys here would do this but I'm surprised this is the first I've heard of it.
 
i think that dad that made his own note detection was more impressive technically... he didnt have a mainframe that probably costs more than my car lol

This is his senior project, not something like a weekly formulaic lab. Probably took him a long time to complete this.
